"We will protest by not working for a few hours then going back to working for the company after" Love when people do posturing just so they can feel like they have the moral high ground for a few hours.
I mean short of unionizing I don’t know how many alternatives people have to affect change
We're so fucking toothless in the US. I'm looking forward to the day when our healthcare isn't tied to employment
To be fair, Pinterest is mainly a site for women. I don't know much about Pinterest but I'm very surprised to learn that most of the board are men.
Maybe it goes to show diversity is overrated if a bunch of men can make a ten billion dollar company that targets women.... you don’t need to be your target population to build something they want....
Wait, Pinterest still exists?
The world is 50% women and 15% white. Pinterest’s board and exec staff is no different than 99% of companies out there which is predominately white males. Say what you want about Trump but in reality the corporate world is the most racist & sexist organization out there.
Equality of opportunity should be strived for, not equality of outcome.
What're the demographics of America tho? Or, which population do you reasonably expect Pinterest's board to reflect?
If they are hiring the best person for the board seat then why does it matter male or female. If the male candidate is better than the female candidate then so be it. Affirmative action type crap is stupid
Birds of a feather flock together. White males will always think other whites males are the most qualified.
Are you saying white males have a greater tendency to do it than other groups? Or are you just using it as an example and if the board was all white women they would then have a tendency to think white women are the most qualified?
The earth will not stop spinning if pinterest disappears from its face.
My $32 puts will thank you lol
Lol my 1+ million rsu will be fucked 😂
yo anyone who thinks Pinterest is like a Toxic Male Masculinity TM company does NOT know Ben. Ben is the most kind, simp guy of anyone I’ve ever fucking met. The overwhelming feeling is “really smart and kinda simpy”
Hoo boy please look up what simp means in 2020 🤣
Can anyone TLDR please. They allegedly discriminated against who and by doing what
A former female exec complained to HR about discrimination, citing the fact that in her review they had told her she is a “champion for diversity” and she took this as minimizing her contributions down to the fact that she is a woman. HR investigated and found no wrong doing and she was then fired for not being a cooperative member of the executive staff. She then wrote a blog post about how the culture is toxic and is suing the company for firing her based on gender discrimination.
..that’s.. it??
Sucks. As a woman I’ve definitely faced gender discrimination before. I literally was told I should get back to the kitchen and that I shouldn’t be in tech because I’m a woman😂. Fuck. Not saying that’s a thing here- but still it does happen,
Also was called a “roastie”. Had to look that up and dear God... I was like wtf.
Guy here. Sorry you had to go through this. Not all men are like this. You go out there and you show them what you're made of!
